A charming stay at a unique hotel in a medieval Italian hilltop town, including breakfast, a welcome gift, mountain bike rental and more

Among Santo Stefano di Sessanio’s narrow, cobblestone streets, you’ll find the four-star Sextantio Albergo Diffuso. Located in a village within the Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga National Park, this medieval hilltop town sits in the highest region of the Apennines. Your unique boutique accommodation will be scattered around the town in various original, period buildings. As a throwback to the Middle Ages, craft work featured in the rooms is made by villagers, ensuring the hotel's rustic simplicity fits the handsome hilly hamlet’s historic atmosphere.
    
If you want to experience authentic Italian meals, rolling green Abruzzese hills and elegant accommodation, then this is the hotel for you. Many of the hotel rooms have wood-burning fireplaces and Suites boast 17th-century wooden ceilings. Indulge in prosciutto, fresh ricotta and other traditional antipasti at Locanda Sotto Gli Archi and sip full-bodied local reds at Il Cantinone, the hotel’s cosy wine cellar. On the hotel grounds, there are artisan craft shops, a library, guided tour options to plateau Campo Imperatore and Rocca di Calascio, plus brilliant cooking, weaving and soap-making lessons. It's small wonder Sextantio Albergo Diffuso carried off a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence.
